IMD was the oldest TV station in North America. It covered the whole of North America and was the American government's TV station.
However, in the past ten years, due to long-term poor management, the ratings were pitifully low. No one knew what was wrong with IMD today. It actually wanted to compete with NBC and NNC.
Xiao Yunhai looked at Franklin beside Neuss and said, "Kree, do you think Paramount Pictures is supporting it?"
Kree was stunned and said, "It's very possible. Recently, there have been rumors in Hollywood that the Steer Corporation and the government have been plotting something. Don't tell me they sold IMD TV to them. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "There's no smoke without fire. If that's the case, then the current Mr. President is treating David Steer too well. "
Kree smiled bitterly and said, "Their relationship is very close."
"I'll add 50 million USD," a European TV station representative said as he raised his sign.
However, just as he finished speaking, another TV station that Xiao Yunhai didn't know directly raised the price.
"Our TV station offers 1.2 billion USD. Everyone, let's leave the European broadcast to our European TV station. "Although that person spoke politely, his tone was very arrogant.
Xiao Yunhai asked, "Who is this?"
Kree said, "Europe's largest private TV station, Tedrob, the son of the owner of Tedrob TV Station. He's a playboy who often comes to Hollywood to hunt for girls. Every female star that he has his eyes on, he uses all kinds of methods to get them. He's not gentlemanly at all. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "That's quite similar to you."
Kree said unhappily, "Nonsense, I'm in love with her, okay?"
After Tedrob bid 1.2 billion USD, the crowd quieted down. No one else made a bid.
The Grammy Awards' advertising revenue over the years was at most this amount.
If the bid went higher, it wouldn't be worth it.
Seeing that everyone was stunned by his price, Tedrob couldn't help but kiss a young model next to him proudly.
Just as Adolf was about to announce that the final winner was Tedrob, a familiar voice came from Xiao Yunhai's other side.
"We, Paramount, bid 1.25 billion US dollars."
Everyone followed the voice and saw Franklin suddenly raise the sign in his hand.
"What's going on? Didn't they say that after Hanks lost to Kungfu Xiao, Paramount TV Station changed its name to Marvel TV Station? "
"Recently, there have been rumors that Steyr Networks is negotiating a big deal with the government. Could it be this IMD TV station?"
"Looking at the situation, it seems very likely."
Everyone at the scene was in a heated discussion.
Kree narrowed his eyes and said to Xiao Yunhai, "Steer is really the godson of the American government. She always thought of it whenever something good happened. After Paramount TV Station lost to you, they actually got IMD TV Station from the government. That's too much. "
Xiao Yunhai frowned and said, "If Paramount owns it, it can be said that it's like adding wings to a tiger."
Paramount originally lost to Xiao Yunhai TV Station and the amusement park. Now, amusement parks were in full swing in the United States, and IMD TV Station was in Paramount's hands. Moreover, they were also building a video network, a music network, and a business network in Hua Xia. With their technical reserves, it was estimated that they would be able to complete it in the near future.
It could be said that the embryonic form of the Steyr Entertainment Empire was now completely established. It was much stronger than when Hanks had it.
Tedrob said unhappily, "Mr. Franklin, does Paramount have a TV station that covers Europe? Don't buy it and then it can't be broadcast. "
Franklin smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about that. We have our own ways. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we can announce it to everyone. After nearly a month of negotiations with the American government, Paramount has bought IMD TV Station. Mr. Robb, IMD TV Station has been at a low point in recent years. We need a strong program to regain the attention of the audience. I hope you can sell it to us. "
After saying these words, Franklin deliberately glanced in the direction of Xiao Yunhai. When he found that he was looking at him with a faint smile, he immediately turned his gaze away.
Tedrob snorted and sneered, "I advise Paramount not to set up a TV station. In the end, you're just making a wedding dress for others. Why bother? "
"Hahaha."
Everyone present couldn't help but laugh. Some people even looked at Xiao Yunhai.
Franklin's face was livid. He suppressed his anger and said, "Mr. Robb, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. Our Steyr is not afraid of any company. "
Tedrob said, "What a pity. Facing Kung Fu Xiao, didn't you all still lose without a scratch on your body? You were cheated to the point of hovering between life and death. Humph, what's the use of coming here to show off? I'll pay 1.3 billion US dollars. "
Franklin's face was very ugly. He raised the sign again and said, "1.35 billion."
"1.4 billion."
"1.45 billion."
"1.5 billion."
Tedrob casually raised the price to 1.5 billion while eating the food handed to him by the beautiful woman next to him.
Kree said, "Damn, this guy is too rich."
Xiao Yunhai looked at Tedrob and said meaningfully, "Kree, are you sure he's an ignorant playboy?"
Kree was stunned and frowned slightly. He seemed to be thinking about what Tedrob had done before.
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "If I'm not wrong, this guy should be pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger. He looks like he doesn't care, but in fact, he has a card up his sleeve. In the novels of Hua Xia, such people are often written about. "
Kree nodded and said, "After hearing what you said, I realize that this guy doesn't seem to be simple at all. Whatever his father gave him, he completed it very well. Although the methods he used were unsightly and even made people laugh at him, he completed the task perfectly. Damn, this guy is too good at pretending. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "This is called strategy, do you understand?"
At this moment, Franklin raised his sign again and shouted, "1.55 billion."
"1.7 billion." Ted Robb directly jumped over 1.6 billion and increased by 150 million.
"Oh, sorry, I didn't learn math well. I should have called 1.6 billion. Mr. Franklin, please do a good deed and give the copyright to our Robb TV Station. Isn't there still the Oscars after this? Don't worry, I won't fight with you. "
"Hahaha."
The Oscars were now extremely stinky. It was hard to say how many viewership ratings there would be this year. Who would dare to spend that money?
Franklin said, "I'll let you have the Oscars. Our Paramount is determined to win the Grammys. 1.75 billion. "
"1.8 billion."
"1.85 billion."
"1.9 billion."
"1.95 billion."
"Deal." Ted Robb put down the sign and shouted.
Hearing his words, Kree almost spat out the red wine he had just drunk.
"Damn, Xiao, why is this guy even more shameless than you?" Kree said.
Xiao Yunhai rolled his eyes and said angrily, "He's still a little worse than you."
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Ted Robb shrugged and said, "My father only gave me 1.9 billion US dollars. I don't dare to make the decision if it's more. Besides, 1.95 billion US dollars can make a movie called '2012'. I'm not that stupid to spend this money for nothing. "
Although Franklin was more mature than his age, he was still infuriated by Tedrob's frivolous words. His chest rose and fell violently several times before he finally managed to suppress the anger in his heart.
Xiao Yunhai said, "This guy is really tolerant. Haha, it's my turn now. "
Kree asked, "How much are you going to spend?"
Xiao Yunhai thought for a while and said, "I don't know. Anyway, I'm going to get the copyright. "
Adolf said, "Congratulations to IMD TV Station for buying the copyright of our Grammy Awards with 1.95 billion US dollars. This is the highest price in years and fully demonstrates the commercial value of the Grammy Awards. Next is the North American copyright. The base price is also 500 million US dollars. You have to know that the viewership ratings in North America have always been much higher than in Europe. I wonder if it will exceed 2 billion US dollars today. Okay, everyone can make their bids now. "
As soon as Adolf finished speaking, Xiao Yunhai raised his sign at lightning speed and said, "1.5 billion US dollars."
